Folks,
It appears our corporate email server changes the Message-Id field of
messages passing through it. Due to that the emails threading gets to be
broken. I'll resubmit the properly structured v2 patchset as soon as our
system administrator fixes the problem and all the questions, already raised by
the maintainers/reviewer, are settled. Sorry for the inconvenience caused me.
Regards,
-Sergey
